It’s amazing how a toothache can turn into a week or more of anxiety and stress (I am a complete baby about going to the dentist), and a complete loss of mojo!  Thankfully I’ve managed to drag myself off the sofa and catch up on all the not so fun tasks that piled up.  Now I’m in the process of hunting down my mojo!  Fingers crossed, I should have a card to show you tomorrow!  Won’t that be a novelty? 😉

In the meantime, I have lots of exciting news from Quixotic Paperie!

Paper Makeup Stamps have now arrived!  I’m not sure what the postal system was playing at, but thankfully these beauties have now landed, and are all ready to find new homes!  The Fairy designs are simply gorgeous, and the Monsters are just perfect for those tricksy boy themed cards and projects.

Part of our Shimmerz order has also arrived, lots of gorgeous shimmery paints to play with.  If you haven’t tried Shimmerz before, I highly recommend picking up a pot of Angel Wings or Candlelight – perfect for accenting stamped images i.e. fairy wings!  The DT and I will be posting some tips and inspiration for using Shimmerz very soon.
